Some speculation has surfaced based around the stamp collecting in Super Mario 3D World. It appears that a Rosalina character icon is one of the stamps that can be obtained in the game (# 1 above), and that there may even be a couple of other stamps with her image (#’s 2 & 3), indicating that she is featured in the game even more prominently than previously thought. In addition to the apparent Rosalina stamps, another stamp (# 4) may turn out to be a character icon similar to the four main icons for the playable characters in the game. Could it be possible that Rosalina and maybe even another character might be playable in the game? It would certainly add to the replay value of the game if this is the case. Post your thoughts in the comments below!

Rosalina may be included in the game but that’s does not mean she is playable. I admit it that would be awesome though. The Number 2 look like a green fairy that you must save in the game to be honest.

I think people are speculating that she’s in the game because pics 1 and 4 above feature that circular shape that playable characters Mario, Luigi, Toad and Peach have. It wouldn’t be too hard to add additional characters in game-design-wise, since they could just share the same attributes as the other playable characters or have their stats midway between two to ensure that they’re still usable to beat the game.

No Daisy should have been in this game or Nintendo makes a game starring Daisy, Peach, Rosalina & Pauline. That would be better let the woman save the day for once. I would be so happy & I will pick Daisy as my starter!

I don’t think she’s going to be playable, even though it would be awesome. It’s obvious she’s going to appear in the game, though. Look at sticker number 3; that’s obviously Rosalina with two Lumas. Sticker 1 could be either Peach or Rosalina, and I’m sure sticker 2 is a Sprixie Princess. No idea about sticker 4.

Look closer. For Pic 1, Peach can’t have two identical separate stamps of her 1 icon. Look at the full picture, her icon is shown filled in already, where this one is circled. Also, the Sprixie Princess is also there filled in, but that’s not why picture 2 isn’t a Sprixie, it’s not a Sprixie because Sprixies don’t carry wands, especially not wands with stars at the ends. And yes, Pic 3 is Rosalina with 2 Lumas. But Pic 4 isn’t Rosalina, it’s the Toad Brigade Captain, who is playable in his own mode.

It’s possible she’s playable as a costume change for Peach, in case two players want to use the same character, maybe each character has two versions (or more)
Wario, Waluigi and Toadette could also be in it. Doesn’t seem likely, but would be nice.

Oh, you mean a shitty, boring blue pallet swap of Peach who does nothing is better than characters with actual personalities and characteristics who actually do things and don’t need a shitty forced back story in a game that doesn’t need it?

She’s not shitty, how does that even describe someone? She’s not boring, you had to find out who she was along the way, which was intriguing. She isn’t blue, some of her dress is blue. She isn’t a palette swap, she’s the first Mario Princess that isn’t one, which is why we can tell that the stamp of Rosalina’s silhouette isn’t Peach. If she was a pallet swap, we wouldn’t be able to do that. She is the only Mario character with a truly amazing personality, rather than ‘Bad Mario’ and ‘Bad Luigi’. Is there a better Mario female? Transvestite Yoshi? Female Toad? Obese Wasp? Early Peach? Yea, Birdo, Toadette, Honey Queen, and Pauline are great, but how could you describe them other than appearance, you can’t, because they have no personality. Waluigi is… mean? Well he hasn’t really done anything bad… good? Well he hasn’t really done much good either… greedy? Well, that’s more of a trait given to him just for being close to Wario in a few games. Rosalina left her mother as a little girl and was forced to play the mother-role towards a whole species, she can never leave to see her mother again, she can’t leave the Lumas, they depend on her. She’s good, helpful, witty, sweet, selfless, lonely, and regal. She’s cute too. This is the least forced backstory in Mario history… IT WAS OPTIONAL, you literally NEVER had to go into the Library and you’d never hear her story, it wasn’t essential to the game’s progression but is the saddest, and most applause-worthy part of any Mario game regarding storyline. Name one Mario character that can live up to these characteristics.

Yet your picture is of Wii Fit Trainer, the emotional equivalent of Fi. Rosalina is the only Mario character I care about, she’s the only one with a sad, detailed backstory. How she went through so much sadness to reach the top. The feels, they hurt. Try to compare Rosalina to “Hi, I’m Daisy!”…

First you think Xernas may be playable, now Roselina… i think you’ve been playing too much games, messing your head. Maybe she’s just a collectible sticker, with your assumption, you could assume any character whose part of the stickers is playable…

Her observatory appears on the cover, green stars, one of the sticker images look like a lumba…Either way she is in the game In some way…maybe the final level, special world or playable. we have to wait and see.

Yeah, but what they are saying is the main characters have special stamps (the characters in colored circles) and they see another stamp that looks similar to a characters in a circle which could mean that the “stamps” may have given away that another playable character is in the game.

Guys, after analyzing it a bit, i think this may actually be true. I’ve traced over the slots and they fit/match… It may not mean shes playable but that has got to be Rosalina cause if you look closely the stamp has the same hair as peaches but with a smooth end like shes turning left (with the trademark emo flap)

About the Rosalina as a playable character, that would be interesting for a few reasons. Like, first and foremost, we would actually see her in action in a game that isn’t Mario Kart. What unique ability she might have?

Oh and about #4, isn’t that supposed to be Captain Toad from the Toad Brigade?

Even if there is the chance to have 4 more character playable in the game, I´m confident in the fact that they are just going to be nothing more that new skins for the habilities that are represented in Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad.

I’ve been waiting for someone to point this out. Rosalina is the first picture, as you can see its not peach because she already has a character stamp. You can see its Rosalina because there’s a hairflip on one side, but not on the other, which is where her emo bangs are. As for the second pic, its not a sprixie princess, its also rosalina, but small. A similar pic of peach can be seen on the bottom right. Compare the second pic to a pic of rosalina off of google. On the outline you can see the ruffles on the bottom center of her dress, and her star wand in her hand. Dont know why she’s small, but there’s no mistaking her. Compare the slim, trailing dress to the dress of sprixie princesses. Very different. As for the third pic, obviously Rosalina and lumas. The fourth pic is toad brigade captain.

It would be VERY interesting if she was. Rosalina is a very mysrerious character, and she’s never really been in a major role. However, I think Daisy would stand a better chance than Rosalina. Mario has Peach. Luigi should have Daisy.

of course not. that would require nintendo to add too much content to their games.

i mean we all know that if this was 10 years ago mario 3d world wouldn’t just consist of the same god damn characters of super mario bros 2 but maybe 10 more each with their own individual jumping and physics abilities. but hey all nintendo does now is the bare minimum when it comes to their mario games so you can count that out.

fuck content, lets add a cat suit and call it a day. also fuck any sort of difficulty whatsoever. because everybody knows that challenge isnt what got people sucked into the mario series to begin with.
